Lilith Finn said, "Theoretically feasible, but if we don't find the treasure, you're unlikely to be in the mood for fun.

If we do find the treasure, you're even less likely to toss it aside for a vacation here."

"You're right." The girl with glasses shrugged and looked towards the airplane cockpit, "Actually, compared to vacationing, I'd much prefer flying this plane right now."

Lilith Finn laughed, "Are you joking?"

"No, I have a pilot's license, I just haven't flown this type of private aircraft yet." The girl with glasses had a look of eager anticipation.

Lilith Finn pouted, "I don't think switching pilots mid-flight is a good idea.

Luke, what do you think?"

Luke responded with another question, "Do we have parachutes?"

The girl with glasses shrugged, "You guys should learn to trust your partners, I would definitely be a good pilot and bring you safely to the ground."

Lilith Finn joked, "I trust you, but you'd have to knock out the pilot first, otherwise I doubt he'd agree."

Luke looked at this girl with colorful braids, he wasn't quite convinced about her flying skills if she dared to go to the cockpit.

Luke wouldn't mind knocking her out first.

Half an hour later, the plane landed on Saint Thomas Island, which is a relatively large island among the U.S. Virgin Islands.

This island is beautiful, many Americans choose to vacation here.

A flight attendant came over, hands placed in front, slightly bowing, "Honored Miss Finn and two distinguished guests, welcome to the U.S. Virgin Islands.

May you have a wonderful vacation here."

"Thank you, we will," Lilith Finn stood up, picking up the backpack beside her.

Luke also grabbed his luggage, ready to disembark.

The airplane door opened, a wave of heat hit them.

The temperature here is around thirty degrees, a bit warmer than Los Angeles, and the air humidity is high, making it feel more muggy.

However, this climate is very suitable for beach vacations.

The three of them, along with six large suitcases, took a shuttle to leave the airport.

At this moment, inside the arrival hall.

A young woman in a brown dress held a white sign with Miss Finn written on it.

Lilith Finn introduced, "This is Elsa Marin, she's the fourth member of our expedition team and our guide for the trip."

Luke sized up Elsa Marin, her skin was light brown, not as dark as typical Black people, her features were delicate, likely a mixed race with a stronger Black heritage.

"I am Marilyn Bumba, you can call me Glasses Girl."

"Luke."

"Welcome to Saint Thomas Island." Elsa Marin looked over at Lilith Finn and said, "Miss Finn, I've already rented a yacht as per your request. Would you like to see the yacht first, or have a meal?"

Glasses Girl suggested, "I have an idea, why don't we have our meal on the yacht? Just thinking about it excites me."

Lilith Finn asked, "Aren't you supposed to know how to drive a yacht? Why do you act like you've never been on one before?"

"Just because a female attendant in a luxury store knows luxury goods doesn't mean she owns any, neither does sitting in a high-end restaurant at dinner make you the chef."

Lilith Finn spread her hands, "I'm not sure if chefs dine at fine restaurants, but you'll definitely have dinner on the yacht tonight."

Shortly after, they rented a car to head towards the dock where the yacht was stationed. Once on the road, Luke realized that cars here drive on the left side, quite unique for the U.S.

Luke suddenly felt concerned about whether his FBI status would be effective here.

"Ring ring..."

Luke's phone rang, picking it up he saw Zhang Jianguo's number on the screen.

He hesitated for a moment, then pressed the answer button, "Hello, this is Luke."

"Mr. Lee, this is Zhang Jianguo, are you available tomorrow? I'd like to invite you for a meal to discuss potential partnership issues."

"Tomorrow might not work, I'm not in Los Angeles at the moment, I have to handle some matters out of town."

"When approximately will you be back?"

"I might be back in about a week."

"So, regarding the investment partnership..."

"I'm currently out of town, it's hard to explain over the phone. Let's talk in detail after I return."

"Alright, I wish you all the best over there.

Once you return to Los Angeles, I'll arrange a welcome reception for you."

"Okay, we'll stay in touch." Luke finished speaking and directly hung up the phone.

Yesterday he waited all day, yet the Zhang brothers didn't call, now that he's at the U.S. Virgin Islands, the call comes in—timing was off. These brothers are businessmen, insightful, but it's natural for them to feel reluctant about giving up a 20% stake in their company. Giving them some time to think isn't a bad thing.

Good things take time, sometimes things coming too easily aren't cherished.

Just like Jinlong Construction Company, even though Jinlong had many issues, it provided significant help during Zhang's Construction Company's early development.

Back then, didn't the Zhang brothers know Jinlong Construction's materials were more expensive with average quality?

Luke felt the Zhang brothers, being insiders, should have known, yet they still chose to cooperate.

After Zhang's Construction grew, they felt their cooperation wasn't equitable, and started seeking new partners.

Certainly, Jinlong Construction Company had issues.

But Zhang brothers undoubtedly had their own agendas.

Considering the situation from their perspective, now Zhang's Construction Company has difficulties and needs Luke's help.

In the future, once the company advances, will they want to terminate the partnership like they did with Jinlong Construction Company?

Of course, the situation with Luke and Jinlong Construction Company is somewhat different.

But people's thoughts can be unpredictable, it's necessary to think ahead about some issues.

Using the opportunity while being out of town, Luke can let these brothers reflect. Let them figure out who's leading this collaboration.

Who's more eager to form this partnership?

Once they mull over it for a while, they'll appreciate it, so future company development will face fewer needless troubles.
